[Treeshepherd]

Well that's a bummer.

am I tripping? I am drunk. Please check my math

 

[leftwinger]

If Duke doesn't blow the game. Ah, Fagheet bout it.

Pupps has 18 points

A final 4 victory counts for 5 points

remember that MarathonMike is currently under investigation for performance enhancing Viagra, and 2nd place is still worth $25 (first place is $50)

I'm too lazy to care, but this was your count going into the final four.

I added each one in my head. If you got the points right it checked out.

I don't want it to be 'my' count. I want this competition to be fair and judicious.

 

[leftwinger]

Looks like no college aboutit adore as I said a year ago. Minor league NBA ball. Same for NCAAF.

It's all good! Night night.

 

[leftwinger]

Well that's a bummer.

RW got 6pts on TENN. rightwinger

 

[leftwinger]

Thanks for running this interesting pool. Good job! Treeshepherd

 

[Treeshepherd]

RW got 6pts on TENN.

Tennessee made it to the Elite 8, for 6 points. Maybe that's where my math went wrong. Hand to God, I had no intention of rug pulling anyone.

I will re-check the numbers in the cold light of morning tomorrow

Like leftwinger said, thanks for running this TreeShepherd! I used to be good at whipping up speadsheet calculators before I retired, I'll play around with your bracket method.

AI is your friend.

 

[MarathonMike]

AI is your friend.

What fun is that? Just say no to AI. I already got it, pretty simple.

 

[Treeshepherd]

sorry about the confusion but in my defense I was traveling at the end of March, plus we had a leftwinger named rightwinger and a righty named leftwinger.

Prize money is sent to rightwinger and Mike
